Volume 1 Chapter 3.1: Interlude: A Certain Possibility – Part 2

My girlfriend is… well, a little unusual.

She has an adorable face that suits her semi-long hair perfectly, and she’s the kind of girl who makes homemade cookies and pot-au-feu. She’s incredibly sweet and domestic—but sometimes, the way she talks has this weirdly masculine edge to it…

“That’s impossible! No—uh, I mean… that’s not possible, right?”

Like just now. She’s quick-witted and loves throwing in retorts whenever she hears something ridiculous, but when she does, it’s like the way she speaks completely shifts.

And it’s not just her words—her actions are the same. Just the other day, I had to stop her from walking into the men’s restroom by mistake. She just laughed it off, saying, “Old habits die hard, I guess,” but… what does that even mean?

I mean, I know for a fact that she’s one hundred percent, without a doubt, a girl. I, uh, have firsthand confirmation of that, so there’s no room for debate.

Oh, and another thing—she has this odd little habit of saying:

“If only I had honestly said ‘John Manjirou’ back then…”

She mutters it absentmindedly sometimes, like it’s burned into her subconscious. But no matter how many times I ask, she refuses to explain what it means.

And sometimes, she just… zones out. Like her mind is somewhere far away. It’s hard to describe, but it feels like she’s seeing something—somewhere—that’s not here.

—

“What’s wrong?”

Her voice snapped me out of my thoughts.

…Wait, was I the one zoning out just now? She was staring at me with a worried expression.

And—yeah, she’s still as cute as ever.

“Oh, it’s nothing. Let’s go.”

I squeezed Kanade-chan’s hand and started walking, as if trying to shake off the strange unease in my heart.
